night to take action on the report OF
j. ID. Cook, the hydraulic engineer
who was recently induced to come TO
Dallas in an advisory capacity and to
aid in the solution Of the pure water
supply problem for this city. The
gentleman has completed his report.
and it is understood he stands by the
Trinity river as the one source from
which our water supply must flow.
lie will recommend huge reservoirs
to be constructed near the pumping
station, to contain 50,000,000 gallons
each. with a system of pipes connect
ing them for the purpose of emptying
and cleansing them. He contends
that the Trinity river is just as pure
as any other river, and says that when
the river is high the water is drainage
from the natural watershed Of the
river, and will be as pure as other
rnin water. He estimates the cost of
the system he proposes at about $751;

not big and strong. and the man from Wander
